Hmm

 

Only myself and Advent Avalanche saw fit to select him for DDP duty this year.

 

The rest of you can feel smug at our joint frustration at getting so painfully close to a unique pick bonus

It was you who picked him for the Advent Avalanche. :lol:

 

In fairness, it's not as bad as Cancerous Hatred robbing themselves of a unique pick for Salvatore DiMasi.

I don't get the Cancerous Hatred 2 thing. It's as if someone put their DDP team in, then a few days passed, and they forget, so submitted their DDP team again with a few changes.

Felt like a thinly-veiled attempt to slightly boost Drop 40 chances for a few names tbh.

Aren't those Jiroemon Kimura's teams? 

The way I saw it was, he had about 15 locks, he couldn't decide on his final 5 names, so he split them into two different teams.

IIRC, he thought he had some awful subs on his first team, so he submitted what he thought was a better team.

My main team and theme team are in my signature. Originally submitted a team right after window opened, but 3 of them didn't make the starting line, and had some dreadfully awful sub picks, so I decided to create an entirely new team with many of the same picks but several changes too. None of my "dead certs" are likely to be unique anyways so that's not really a concern.

There we go.

Personally, I think his first team is better.

Wasn't Cancerous Hatred Dr. Zorders?

 

I considered Colin Baddiel for Shameless. But Pick's Disease just didn't seem terminal enough.

Cancerous Hatred is Jiroemon Kimura (the forum member, not the oldest man ever).

An accurate epithet, but as Joey said, it's JiroemonKimura.

 

Zorders was Dead and Deader.

I am pretty new to deadpooling and this question probably doesn't belong here (feel free to move it) but can somebody enter multiple teams into the ddp? I plan on joining next year and I already have plans for a theme team and a main team. Probably a stupid question but I can't really find an answer to it anywhere on the forum.

I've got 3 teams. I think that's your maximum.

Haven't had a new entry for List of the Lost in over a month now (33 days).
In fact should we close out the day today, there'll be none for June 2017.
Some sorta record?

Err... take a look at the round-up.

We got Keith Farnham on June 18th, Zoltan Sarosy on June 19th, Bill Woodson (died in February but only discovered in June), and Dave Rosser on June 27th.

I like the fact that Farnham was on Pan Breed's team last year, dropped him, and then a couple of  teams who don't do their own research picked him cause he was a contender pick who survived last year. One of them even jokered him. :D

Here's an QO for LOST Prince Gholareza Pahlavi.  
Only one I could find, scanned the whole thing fwiw.

Um, he was already in the last update...

What Bill Woodson?  The voice actor b.1928?  Someone better tell WIki.  
I've noticed it doesn't pay to be a Canadian or Irish or Kiwi....that's like 85% of the List of the Lost.  Something to think about.
Sad that Roy Sievers didn't obit.  To date that is the most surprising.  No respect for baseball form the Brits.

Well what fucking update, I'm staring at the goddamn website.  Are updates posted here and NOT on the website or summat?  Whatever.

Wiki had him as dead a while ago, Google and IMBD still do.

Right about the baseball thing, though.

They are posted on the website. 

Scroll down to the bottom of the June 22nd update and you will see Gholamreza Pahlavi was included, right under Bill Dana.

But I guess I can't blame you, because TMIB forgot to take him off the List of the Lost.

Bloody hell I'm having an awful year. 1 hit so far.

If there's any consolation, I'm having an even worse year so far. Today, 1 July, marks the halfway point of the year, so hopefully I'll get a few hits in the second half. 3-6 hits should be plausible, imo. Baby Peggy, Kurt Hamrin, Pat Hitchcock, Israel Kristal, Princess Christina Magnuson, Dorothy Malone, Catherine Nevin & Leo Sharp are my biggest "hopes" at the moment.
